Heuristic Threshold Detection Algorithm for Spike

Spike detection is the basis of signal processing with implantable brain machine interface system and its detection accuracy affects the accuracy of signal decoding and analysis. An automatic detection algorithm for spikes is proposed. Firstly, elliptic filter parameters are optimized to reduce the attenuation degree of useful signals, so as to retain spikes with low amplitude in the original signals. Then the heuristic threshold formula is used to effectively reduce the mixed noise interference introduced in the complex acquisition environment and realize automatic spike threshold detection. The algorithm is tested on synthetic extracellular records developed at the Neuro-Engineering Lab at the University of Leicester, UK, and shows an average detection accuracy of 65.21% for a variety of SNRS. In addition, spike thresholds are detected in implantable electroencephalogram data collected from the rhesus monkeys’extended-limb grasping movement paradigm. Experimental results show that the proposed spike detection algorithm can be used to extract spike signals from real data of uncertain background noise.
